Just wanted to thank you for such a easy way to install fonts into Linux (Linux Mint). Used "Font Manager" and to test added the Allura font to use with GIMP, everything was easy and simple... :)

For the outliers like myself occupying that odd corner of the venn diagram where art, design and Nerd Shit™ overlap allow me to recommend another option; Fontbase.

It's not FOSS, but it's free(you get a couple more features for a one time fee), cross-platform, light and loaded with useful features.

I think it's faster to just copy them to /usr/share/fonts or, better, ~/.local/share/fonts (I believe ~/.fonts and /usr/local/share/fonts are deprecated from flatpak - KDE font manager system installation actually puts the fonts in the latter so it doesn't get read by flatpak).

Have the fonts on my harddisk and in user folder, but, as always, none appeares in Libre Office. Same old...

In petty much any modern Linux distro you can simply double-click a font file and click "install".

The ability to browse and one-click install online fonts is pretty cool, though.

On Linux mint I usually just copy paste. Go to user under run as root. And paste loll

Bebas "Noi-e" and when is Linux going to manage a simple double click install like macOS?

btw Use .otf fonts rather than ttf.
